Goodhouse - Couverture rigide

"A marvel - a glorious combination of page-turning literary thriller and challenging examination of freedom, destiny, and the thorny ideals of faith and science" (Eleanor Brown, NYT-bestselling author of THE WEIRD SISTERS)

"GOODHOUSE is thrilling and wonderful and dark" (Mark Childress, author of CRAZY IN ALABAMA)

"A page-turning account of one boy's journey through a vivid and dangerous world." (Karen Joy Fowler, author of WE ARE ALL COMPLETELY BESIDE OURSELVES)

"Peyton Marshall's debut is a page-turner of the highest order, the kind of book you don't want to finish but cannot stop reading." (James Scott, author of The Kept)

"This is one of the most intellectually thrilling and beautifully unsettling novels I've read in years." (Bret Anthony Johnston, author of Remember Me Like This and Corpus Christi)

"Like Kazuo Ishiguro's Never Let Me Go, Goodhouse is a gripping excursion to a vividly imagined and profoundly disturbing future. Peyton Marshall has written an unforgettable first novel, a work of striking originality, empathy and skill." (Jennifer Haigh, author of Faith)

"Goodhouse is a debut of extraordinary power and vision, and Peyton Marshall is a new voice for the ages." (Laura van den Berg, author of The Isle of Youth)

"Magnificently written ...powerful" (New York Times Book Review)

"A fantastic cautionary tale that will leave you muttering "one more chapter" as the night stretches on. We highly recommend it" (SciFiNow)
